Tennessee Basketball is set to welcome VCU transfer Terrence Hill Jr., a guard who posted a 15.0‑point average last season and quickly became one of the most talked‑about names in the transfer portal.
Hill’s breakout moment came in the NCAA Tournament when he erupted for 34 points against North Carolina, a performance that caught the eye of ESPN analyst Paul Biancardi, who described him as a “killer” on the court.
The buzz surrounding Hill is reflected in his No. 19 ranking among portal prospects and his recent accolades as the Atlantic 10’s Most Improved Player and 6th Man of the Year, honors that underline his rapid ascent.
A Promising Addition to the Volunteer Roster
He will join a Tennessee backcourt that already features transfers Juke Harris and Jalen Haralson, adding depth and versatility as the Volunteers look to bolster their lineup for the upcoming season.
Coach Rick Barnes and the staff have praised Hill’s toughness and natural combo‑guard instincts, while noting that there is still room for him to refine his playmaking and become a more traditional point guard.
